Search the RFD forums for past discussions, which will also have links to shaving websites with more info, as would a Google Search. YouTube has videos & each video often has other links as can viewer comments.

Tried it years ago . Really enjoyed it . But there came a time where I gave up on shaving and grew a beard . Get good razor and hot skin is the key to a close shave .

<sig removed> by moderators . Yet no moderator told me they removed or why ?

Safety razor for me. It's hard to cut yourself, blades are cheap and you get a good shave. I had a straight razor shave at a hair salon once it was amazing but hard to replicate at home.

Safety razor here as well. Saving a ton of money and getting a better shave.

Safety razor here too (Rockwell 6s on plate 4), Nivea shaving cream lathered by hand (peanut sized nub goes a long way if you take your time to lather), 3 passes, WTG, XTG, ATG for clean up. I can shave daily now, with no irritation.
